WR Adonai Mitchell traded to Jets in Sauce Gardner deal

According to multiple reports, Adonai Mitchell is being traded to New York to complete the Sauce Gardner deal.

That means in all, the Jets will receive Indianapolis’ first-round picks in 2026 and 2027 plus Mitchell, in exchange for Gardner.

Fantasy Impact: 

Mitchell was buried in the Colts depth chart and a move to the Jets could get him as high as the team's WR2 spot fairly quickly. As the story said, after making 23 receptions for 312 yards as a rookie last year, he looked like he was having a breakout game in Week 4 against the Rams. But Mitchell infamously dropped the ball just before reaching the end zone for a touchdown, with the ball going out of the end zone for a touchback. The story added, since then, Mitchell had played only single-digit snaps in four games, making a total of two receptions for a total of 15 yards. While the Jets QB situation isn't the best, Mitchell should have a chance to succeed in an offense that is very needy for weapons at the WR spot.
